people of Delaware, consists essentially
Of two measureAi First, the publication
Of the primaries; second, the forging OF
i new tool with which TO amend the state
constitution.
With respect to the frat measure--the
puridcation OF the priniaries-the club
uiid every uian deserving the elective
franchise, it matters MOI what shade Of
political belief his may be, must neces-
hariiy be in full accord. There can be no
valid exception taken TO the uheranee of
the committee on this important matter
when II says fraud at the primaries must
be stopped at any cost, otherwise candi-
dates, when nominated, Will never, and
should moi, il frsudulently nominated, re-
ceiye the full vote of their party. rhas
the party whose primaries are tpinted by /
fraud will first be disgrleed and then
beaten, for men will not long submit 10 !
being cheated out OF their jus. deserts !
and then help those who did IT, And, |
further on, "such offences, (fraud or
cheating at the priiiAritsj cannot be
eondoned in the slightest degree nor eGn
the slightest excuse for them be offered " |
This is, unquestionably, the first aud
most important matter 10 be attic ded IL,
and it seems 10 US, as well as we can read
the signs of the timea, that the people
are awakening to q determination that i.
shall be attended 20. The pollution Of
the primaries hes gone On from bad to
worse in this city till it has reached a
depth OF foulness and corruption TO
which decent voters will no longer tamely
submit. There must be change unless
the responsible and qualified voters
are ready to hand the control
of public affairs over to the
elements controlled by coruptionists.
1t is bad enough certainly when the bal
lots of half q dozen Taxpayers, anchored
here BY substantial interests and vitality
interested in good government can be null
lifted by the work Of enc irresponsible re-
peater; it is infinitely worse il inspectors
are to be allowed % figure up najorities
irrespective altogether Of the votes, fair
and fraudulent, that may pe in the box.
Already it is getting 70 Dp common Tor
qualified Yoiers p remark that there IS no
use in their taking pait in Tie primaries,
" because such and such fellows have
this thing all SGT mp and they afe Is be
counted in"

Tho Loudest Psalm Singer OF the Army
Proves to BE Veteran Thief.
Frank Baker, recent addition to the
Salvation Army, was arrested by Detective
Horne yesterday morning at the close OF
the service on the strength OF telegram
received from Baltimore to the effect that
a man answering Bakers description had
robbed an oyster dredger OF $500. The
officer dropped into the hall yesterday
morning and saw Baker occupying a seat
among the high privates, and singing
hymns with great spirit. The more he
looked at the man the more he felt con
vinced that he was the party wanted.
"Come with me-" Sail Horne, tapping
Baker on the shoulder.
"Arey going TO do anything for this
mani" said the captain OF the army, ad.
dressing the detective.
Yes, "I'll likely get him a good place.
"Bless you, my brother meant to take
him home with me and give him meal
You will get him somethlDgY"l
eyes; ! will try and get him a good
long job,n said the officer, and with this
he carried the prisoner to police head.
quarters. The psalm singer was not In the
room five minutes before he felt the
"pinch" and "peacned." He said that the
Baltimore man wanted him to go dredging,
and they both went to lodging house on
Baltimore street. Before retiring his em
ployer took out Of his coat pocket well
lllled wallet and laid IL under his pillow
During the night Baker stole the money in
the wallet, which amounted to 5000, aud
"skipped by the light of the moon" The
prisoner admitted that he had served
"timen for horse stealing. The Baltimore
authorities were notified, and 1t Is likely
that he will be taken away to-day.
